My Live Rock Has Green Algae

[eddy911chp]

Hi
I’ve had my IM 30 gal AIO tank for 2 months now and everything has been going well. I believe my parameters are all good not sure what is causing this algae outbreak.
Mg: 1400
CA: 470
KH: 8.1
PH: 8.2
Sal: 1.025
PO4: .09
NO3: 3.95
NH: 0
Temp: 82


Only change was adjusting my INT from 60% to 70%.

Looks Like green coralline algae to me, that’s a good thing!

Rock doesn’t stay white it’ll turn green purple pink red.

Just going thru the new tank stages, nothing to worry about. Try to get the temp down around 77–80 if you can. 82 doesn’t give you much wiggle room if things heat up

Thank you! Now i feel better about slowely changing the INT of my Kessil A360X from 60 to 75%. I have an SPS thats been slowely turning brown.

Put a snail on it, see what happens.

I agree with emac and Shane. This to me just looks like new rock becoming mature rock
